Been A Little While.

Looking around, and just taking it all in.  Everything.  Politics, social warfare, international issues, etc.   Pretty sad stuff.

I must hearken back to Ronald Reagan when he asked: "are you better off now than four years ago?"  I have to say yes.  Not because of the  government, or the economy, but because I have invested my personal time, effort, blood, sweat and tears to get where I am today.  No government program got me here; no handout put me in a better financial position; not one word any politician uttered made me feel better about myself.  Quite the contrary -seeing the devastation of what an invasive government can do has caused me to lose some sleep at night.

Again, I must say yes for the simple fact I got myself here.  I put in the time.  I made the sacrifice(s) to not go on a vacation, continue to drive a 15 year old car hoping it won't die a horrible death on the side of the road when I need to make deliveries.  Believe me I wanted to go away, I wanted to buy that new car and become intoxicated with the new car smell.  We recently purchased a new car: a 2012 model (remember that it is 2016 when I am writing this).  We were also able to take a vacation because we saved up for it.    Hm, this fiscal responsibility thing works! 

It wasn't easy getting here.  Everyone can do it: the question is do you WANT to do it (pay the price through effort).  I've rambled a bit, but that's what I do.  As far as politics go -anyone except Hillary.  International issues: The UK should commit to BREXIT.  For social warfare -What ever Bernie has started, we will always feel the burn because of it.

Laterz.
